Book your next trip with Mother Ocean Charters and find out what keeps anglers coming back to Bradenton Beach for more. With Captain Kyle, a Sarasota native with over 20 years fishing expertise, at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.

With Mother Oceans "adventures your way" policy you can rest assured that this will be the perfect trip. We can accommodate everybody. For fishing we can drift the flats or go up next and cast to mangrove shorelines or docks. We can hit the sandbar and cool off. Stop by and check out the dolphins or even watch the sunset. For something different we can even stop and pull some of the captains personal crab traps (seasonal).

Young ones are welcome, so get 'em offline and onto the water! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, we normally keep a good selection on board. Also remember to bring snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

Your adventure begins aboard a 20' SeaCraft center console with room for 6 passengers (4 on fishing trips). It comes with all the essentials and top of the line electronics including sonar, side scan, bottom scan and Livescope for the best chance of success.

Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is normally provided depending on the trip.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations. If you do want to keep your catch we will fillet and bag it up.

It's a good idea to bring sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat. There will be water provided, but you are welcome to bring your own drinks. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, we do ask no glass bottles. Cooler space and ice are provided

We look forward to welcoming you aboard!

Captain Kyle was the BEST!
2 Hour - Catch and Release Trip on May 19, 20262 adults2 children

The trip was a delight! We did a 2 hour catch and release trip with two kids, ages 9 and 10. Captain Kyle was easy to talk to, very kind, and very patient with kids (and adults😂) who asked a lot of questions. We spotted a few dolphin then went to the mangroves. We caught about 12 speckled sea trout, 1 snook, and 1 lady fish. We also saw a cormorant gulp down a sea trout. The sun was out, the weather was perfect, snacks were had, the company was good, and the fish were biting. It was a golden day. Thanks, Captain Kyle!

Reported catch:

Great 2 hour trip
2 Hour - Catch and Release Trip - 7:30 AM on June 23, 20264 adults

We stayed in the bay for our 7:30 am 2 hour trip. We saw a pod of dolphins to start the day. As a group we caught a variety of fish; Snook, Catfish, Spotted Trout, Ladyfish, and a Needlefish. Kyle was excellent to work with keeping our lines baited and reading the water and bite to get us on fish. We would highly recommend Mother Ocean Charters!

Great day on the water!
4 Hour Trip - 12:00 PM on April 2, 20263 adults1 child

Captain Kyle asked us what our goals were for the day and he did just what we asked for. We wanted to try for some big fish first and then some quality fish to take back for supper. We started out with fish on within minutes of putting the trolling motor in the water. We fished for a variety of fish and ended up landing some Snook, Redfish, Jack, and Trout. Captain Kyle was very knowledgeable and a great guide especially answering all my 10 year old son’s questions.

Captain Kyle
4 Hour Trip on May 18, 20263 adults

First time out. We did not catch a whole bunch to take back home with us. However Captain Kyle made the trip worth while. (With fishing you have good days and bad days no matter who Captain is.)Thank you for your knowledge and professionalism. We learned alot about salt water fishing and will definitely return some day. As I writing this I am about to grille up some saltwater trout. Thanks again for a great morning of fishing!!!

Reported catch:
Speckled Trout
